I loved her poise, style, dedication and service. She was determined to serve her country and protect her king – a smart, fit, astute leader of the special forces, a protector who couldn’t be caught unawares.

My favorite line in the movie?
When the king said: “I am not king of everyone. I am king of Wakanda.”

If you have been reading my posts for a while or following me on social media, you will know that I often talk about personal branding, the importance of authenticity and identifying your audience.

That particular statement was a personal branding moment. I talk more about assignments and authenticity in my latest book, Assigned and you can get it on Amazon.com or anywhere books are sold.

Should you watch Black Panther?
Yes, it is a great movie. If you haven’t seen it yet and wondering if you should, I say go for it. Don’t hesitate. I deliberately didn’t go into details about the movie because I don’t want to spoil it for you if you haven’t seen it yet.

Have you seen Black Panther? Who’s your favorite character and why?

Great write up. I love the way the film brings out all the richness of African culture from Nigeria, Ghana, Kenya and many more. From the costumes to the language and way of life. There is definitely something to be said for personal branding and the saying of “know thy self and be true to thy self”. Personal branding and authenticity is key to living a purpose driven life. #WakandaForever 😁

Awesome to get a review of the movie from the African perspective. I have not seen it yet. The hype, reviews, and other forms of celebration of the film are inspiring, and I can’t wait to see it. Love how you incorporated elements of the movie’s success into the necessity of branding.

I’ll be watching this with a girlfriend on Friday. I completely missed the hype…and you’re one of the few people that brought this awesome movie progress to my attention, so thank you. The movie theatre offers 2d and 3d. Thanks also for reaffirming my decision to get a 3d ticket! X
